4.3 In particular, Byte Neoka is not a credit institution, an electronic money institution or a payment institution; it does not take deposits or other repayable funds from the public; and it does not at any time come into possession of the User's funds, nor does it safeguard, control or dispose of them.

4.5 The decision to accept or reject the User as a client of the Regulated Entity rests exclusively with that entity.

4.6 Byte Neoka does not provide financial, investment, legal or tax advice.

5. THE PRODUCTS AND FINANCIAL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BY THE REGULATED ENTITY

5.1 The products and financial services are provided in full by the Regulated Entity, under its own authorisation, its own responsibility and its own Agreement. The User enters into a direct and independent contract with the Regulated Entity. Neither Byte Neoka nor Neoxpat is a party to that contract.

5.2 The following rest exclusively with the Regulated Entity:

  • identification of the User and the decision to accept or reject;
  • opening, maintenance, suspension and closure of the product or account;
  • issuance of the electronic money or equivalent instrument, and allocation of the corresponding account identifier;
  • execution of transactions and compliance with execution times;
  • safeguarding or backing of the funds;
  • the pre-contractual and contractual information required by the applicable rules;
  • handling of unauthorised or incorrectly executed transactions, and refunds;
  • handling of complaints relating to the products and financial services.

5.3 Before contracting, the User must read and accept the Regulated Entity's Agreement, which identifies that entity, its authorisation or registration number and its supervisory authority.

5.4 The User's funds do not form part of the balance sheet or assets of Byte Neoka or Neoxpat, and are not available to meet the obligations of either.

6. REGISTRATION ON THE PLATFORM

6.1 Natural persons aged eighteen (18) or over who are resident in the countries indicated as available on the Platform may register. These General Terms do not enable contracting by legal persons.

6.2 Registration on the Platform is a technical act and does not give rise to any right to the opening of a product or account.

6.3 Where the Regulated Entity requires identification documents, the Platform may serve as a technical channel for their collection and transmission. Verification, assessment and the decision rest with the Regulated Entity.

6.4 The User undertakes to provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information, and to notify any change without delay.

7. LICENCE TO USE

8.1 The Platform is provided on a reasonable availability basis. Byte Neoka does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation and may suspend access for maintenance, updates, security incidents or at the requirement of a competent authority.

8.2 Suspension of access to the Platform does not affect the User's rights or obligations vis-à-vis the Regulated Entity, nor the availability of the User's funds, which continue to be governed by the Regulated Entity's Agreement and by the channels which that entity makes available.

9. SUPPORT AND COMPLAINTS

9.1 Enquiries and incidents concerning the operation of the software may be addressed to support@bnka.com or to the support channels indicated on the Platform from time to time.

9.3 Where the User addresses a complaint of that nature to Byte Neoka, Byte Neoka will forward it to the Regulated Entity and notify the User accordingly, without this altering the allocation of responsibilities set out in clause 5.

9.4 The Jurisdiction Modules identify the additional complaint channels and the competent administrative bodies in each country.

The intellectual and industrial property rights in the Platform, including the software, the BNKA trade mark, the content and the design, belong to Neoxpat or have been licensed to it. Nothing in these General Terms transfers any right in them to the User.

14. REQUESTS FROM AUTHORITIES
